I think they still work well with gaming though, or that was what I was told.

Not at all. Terrible for gaming.

You can call them and notify them you want to change your order, I don't think anyone here will disagree with me...

$2k is nothing for college, plus I said I sold my laptop and things.

My laptop I got about $600/$700 for it.

Yeah, I posted on how I got it look at what I posted previously.

I find it ironic how a 16 year old actually has a job or requires a laptop thats nearly as powerful as a desktop and has a job travelling around you say also that thing is going to weigh a ton good luck shifting it anywhere...

PS: you also gave us no proof of this "Order" and I remember Linus mentioning Eurocom laptop's on a livestream this is so a clear troll or you have more money than sense...

This. Toms Hardware did a benchmark on DESKTOP workstation cards, and they get shit frame rates

I like the color scheme of Noctua fans. Deal with it. Forget about the bad memories of the past.

How do you find it ironic how I have a job? Makes no sense once so ever.. Plus I needed it powerful because I needed a desktop-like machine... Plus I bought a carrying case gonna carry it with no problem..

Thanks dude! Gonna get the 780M though.

In your previous post, you said you already ordered it, and there was nothing you can do about it...
